Hi everybody!
I'm about buying a new gaming laptop, and my main concern is the brand.. I've made a little investigation and finally found two specious rigs:
1. ASUS G551JM - i7-4710HQ, GTX 860M 4 GB GDDR5, 8 GB DDR 3 RAM, 15,6", costs $ 1300
2. MSI GT70 2PE Dominator Pro - i7-4700HQ, GTX 880M 4 GB GDDR5, 8 GB DDR3 RAM, 17,3" costs $ 1650
I admit that the MSI one is superior in performance (that GTX 880 would be so wonderful), but I've heard several rumors that it has weak quality compared to ASUS (poor materials, heating problems, and so on). So the ASUS machine might be more durable. Is that true? I haven't checked for more powerful ASUS rigs, because they are far more expensive than the MSI rigs (maybe that why they have poor quality, if it's true) and this MSI one has the maximum price which I can afford.
So guys, the question is: if you were me, which power plant would you buy??
Many thanks in advance for your help!
